From the director of ‘Swimming Pool' and ‘8 Women' this tale follows the disintegration of a thoroughly modern couple's marriage..but in reverse, beginning with the divorce and ending with their first meeting. A cleverly executed and intriguing premise, 5 Times 2, despite its generous critical acclaim, left me cold, perhaps a homage to French new wave cinema that my simple mind has always failed to fully grasp. find out more...

Godard's hugely influential debut went on to inspire a new wave of French cinema and this is the film which epitomised the iconoclasm of the early Nouvelle Vague. Belmondo is the hip gangster, modelled on Bogart, whose escapades, including shooting a cop, leave him and his girlfriend on the run from both the cops and his enemies. The insolent casual style and cool moods make this the ultimate film noir.
